Title: Source for salvage bikes?
Post by: d3vi@nt on August 17, 2013, 08:50:41 AM
I've been wanting an 848 salvage bike for a project/track bike, but haven't had much luck finding anything. I checked out e-repairables for a while, but they're borderline scam and tied into the other online salvage auction sites that are also borderline scam.

Any suggestions, or mostly just a matter of trolling Craigslist/e-bay and hoping to get lucky?

I think they have at least one 848 currently.  I bought my monster through them.  Easy to work with.
